When the days grow cold
Bb5                  Cm
   In this dead gray town
                   G#
All the doors stay closed

   Silence breaks the sound
        Eb5
Of your heartbeat

You're just 19... feeling old..

Reach up to the sun till we drop

Winter turns  to   Spring
Bb5                   Cm
  All our friends are gone
                      G#
When the church bells start to ring
C#5                Bb5

Holding flowers.. no one brings

There's a place I know
G#                  Bbm
   Where us misfits go
             F#
In the candlelight at night
Bm             G#
  Black roses grow
            C#5
Through the darkness
       D#5     Bm     G#
On our journey to the light
